Smooth sunset
Uploaded: September 18, 2009
This was shot at the Great Falls over Potomac river in the Washington DC area.
I used a polarizer filter and neutral density filter stacked on my 18 70 lens.
I manually blended two exposures, one exposed for sky and the other for land. Played with multiple layers blended with screen and multiply modes to enhance highlights and shadows.
